IDIOTS AT WORK
I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed that I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card. She informed me that she could not complete the transaction unless the card was signed. When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare the signature on the credit card with the signature I just signed on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully compared that signature to the one I signed on the receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.

IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: many deer were being hit by cars and he no longer wanted them to cross there.

IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE
My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She asked the individual behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg.

IDIOT SIGHTINGS
Sighting #1:
I was at the airport, checking in at the gate, when the airport employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?" I said, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?" He smiled and nodded knowingly, "That's why we ask."

Sighting #2:
The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it is safe to cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged coworker of mine, when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals to blind people when the light is red. She responded, appalled, "What on earth are blind people doing driving?"

Sighting #3:
At a good-bye lunch for an old and dear coworker who is leaving the company due to "down-sizing," our manager spoke up and said, "this is fun. We should have lunch like this more often." Not another word was spoken. We just looked at each other like deer staring into the headlights of an approaching truck.

Sighting #4:
I worked with an Individual who plugged her power strip back into itself and for the life of her could not understand why her system would not turn on.

Sighting #5:
When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up our car, we were told that the keys had been accidentally locked in it. We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from the passenger's side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered it was open. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "It's open!"

I had a girlfriend ask me once if I'd like something from the store, I said "H2O", about an hour went by and she called me and said she had been up and down every isle and couldn't locate any "H2O", it took the rest of the day to explain to her that H2O was, it was a very long day...

With every Civil Right there has to be a corresponding civil obligation.

My buddies wife did the same thing with her power strip. They were trying to figure out how to get a bunch of plugs into the wall and the power strip, she grabbed the male end of the power strip and said, "There, that should work right?"

i didnt post this avatar as a racist symbol,you lout.i posted it as a reminder that there is a large part of history behind the "stars and bars"unfortunately a bunch of sheet wearing miscreants adopted it as a racial marker.i see this flag,i think,good friends,cold beer,and nascar.

I see a symbol of a States individual right to run as the people of that state see fit and to not be dictated by an overbearing centralized federal government. I see it as a symbol of the people of this country having the right to choose their own way of life. I do not see it as a banner for rascism, or of "idiots". It was the flag of a people telling it's government, (that by the way needs to stay out of peoples business) this is our country, my individual state is my country. We will run it as we see fit, not how those of other states wish us to be. Somebody needs to tell them that again, i.e., California, New York, Illinois, etc...
